602: ANNALS OF REVOLT: 1979
This tumultuous year saw the overthrow of the Shah, the rise of the Islamic Republic in Iran, and the subsequent hostage crisis—not to mention the rise of Saddam Hussein, the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, and the Camp David peace accords. Revisiting these events, and tracing their impact up to the present day, are New York Times journalist Stephen Kinzer; Univ. of Michigan history professor Juan Cole; and international banker Karim Pakravan. Moderated by Allan N. Lever, president, World Trade Center Chicago.
